You could call the white aiming thing the 'Firing Template' or the 'Ghost Sights'.

+SuperLordPedro "Ghost sights" I like it :)

Or you could call it what it is which is the cannons / carronades firing zone. which is part of it's firing arc which is the max transverse angle for the guns from bow to stern.

It already has a name. 'Sector of Fire'. The term has been used in the military for centuries.

Sweet video bro. I'm looking forward to the video on manual sails. I'd like to see if you tack and gibe, and what you do if you're in irons. I see the wind is shown on the compass. What about the sea current? It will certainly be a good video for all the young fellas that don't know the difference between the head and a halyard.

@AxeManAnt 8 жыл бұрын

+HR USA Currently, the only bearing the sea has is the rolling of the waves, which forces you to manage your heel, but other than that no, there are no currents or anything like that. Maybe it'll be added, but i dont think the devs are trying to create a 100% true to life sailing sim. You can see i was in irons briefly in this video, and didnt use manuals to get underway again, luckily, auto sails gets you there eventually but it's slow and can be frustrating. Thanks for watching :)

@hrusa1047 8 жыл бұрын

+AxeManAnt Is there an advantage to arming carronades early in the game? You said something about not having much of a crew till you rank up. I would think smaller cannons, or carronades would be the way to go. Historically they took a smaller gun crew. also does the size of the guns have an affect on the speed, handling, or draft of the ship? I'm really interested in the crafting part of this game.

@AxeManAnt 8 жыл бұрын

+HR USA yeah, arming carronades decreases weight as it would have done in real life. A 24 pounder cannon weighed about 2 tons while a 24 carronade weighed about a quarter as much if I remember correctly. The other advantage of carronades in game is their higher damage capacity, but at a large accuracy and range cost. I much prefer to use cannon in game if I'm honest.

@homermorisson9135 6 жыл бұрын

Just call it the targeting marker, or firing line. Anyhow, thanks for these vids! And as an afterthought: it's actually a nice surprise to have someone who's interested in and apparently good at PvP take the time to explain stuff to newbs... most of the time the PvP dudes I've had to endure had pretty much all been elitist pricks who thought they were the only ones entitled to play whatever PvP title it was at the time.

also can you fight in open world or do you need to load into a small match map ?

@AxeManAnt 8 жыл бұрын

+Shabi-laka Gaming No, you cant fight in open world, all battles take place in a "battle instance" where the physics, ship handling and scaling is a lot more realistic.

@Vograx 8 жыл бұрын

Might be just me.. but doesn't random fire mode fire off all the guns faster than just rolling fire? I haven't really clocked it, but it feels to me like all guns are fired faster when in random mode rather than rolling fire which fires each gun with half-second intervalls.

@AxeManAnt 8 жыл бұрын

Yes, you're right. Random fire does tend to have all your guns discharged quicker than rolling fire. But it can vary. I tend to stick with a rolling fire mode, as I prefer the uniformity of it and the fact I know the pattern of fire.

@JOINTBAW 8 жыл бұрын

actual in game ships was close to getting something called a privateer British but dont know wat its for im still in the cutter and upgraded the gun to basic 12pounder cannos but now sure wat guns are best used

@AxeManAnt 8 жыл бұрын

ah, ok, my history videos on the ships will include some info about what they're like in-game. As for the cutter, the only twelve pound weapon the cutter can use are carronades, which are short range cannons but much less accurate than cannons, get in close to do maximum damage with them.

@alecguevara1835 6 жыл бұрын

I was reluctant to buy it too, but I got it on sale and it's worth the money. The game is not complete yet so it's not 100% good, but it's enjoyable and if you like the age of sail I don't think there's a better game out there. It's a gorgeous game and the dynamics have improved some from the time this video was made. If you have the money, it's not a bad investment.
